Importance of Taxation
The power of taxation proceeds upon the
theory that the existence of government is a
of every government.
The power can
therefore be exercised even without the
Constitution or any law expressly conferring
such power.
2.Legislative power
The power of taxation can only be exercised
by the lawmaking body (Congress), not by the
executive or the judicial branch of the
government, except when delegated by the
national legislative body, or to the executive
branch, subject to limitations as may be
provided by law.
3. Inherent and constitutional limitations
Taxation has inherent limitations, such as the
following:
1. Taxes must be levied for public purposes
and no amount shall be used for religious
purposes;
2. The power of taxation cannot be delegated;
3. Only one tax can be imposed on the same
income (rule against double taxation);
